When using the spellchecker, users of the ArmSpell website can enter the text to be checked (up to 300 words) in the search field and check the spelling and grammatical errors of the words in the text. If a mistake is found, the system offers 6-10 options for correcting the mistake, based on the similarity of the word's form, and also offers some of the inflected versions of the given word.

 

          The system checks spelling and grammar errors by comparing them with the words in the database. If the checked word is missing from the database, then it is considered by the system as a word with a spelling error. After finding a word with an error, the system compares it with the words in the database and finds the closest words in terms of form, presenting it to the user as a possible correct option.

 

         When proofreading the text entered by the user, the system searches and matches not only the Word field previously entered into the database but also the corresponding forms compiled/generated based on type tags.
